Editorial Review:
Unplugged and set apart from his bandmates, Dave Matthews is transformed from a fusion rocker to something of a fusion folkie. Indeed, this two-disc, two-man concert recording (cut in Iowa in the winter of 1996 and shelved for nearly three years) posits the South African-born bandleader less as a Blues Traveler fellow traveler than a dexterous, jazz-inflected minstrel in the tradition of Tim and Jeff Buckley, Terry Callier, and Ellen McIlwaine. As with those considerably less-successful performers, multiplatinum Matthews is enticed to soar ever higher by his considerable vocal prowess. Ultimately, Matthews takes his tunes in dizzying directions because he can! All those exhibitions of elasticity have earned Matthews disdain in less-is-more circles. Here, however, more than ably complemented by frequent DMB guest and fellow Charlottesville, Virginia, denizen Tim Reynolds, Matthews virtually bursts through 23 tunes that leave his audience wanting more. They needn't worry: even his worst critics wouldn't accuse Matthews of being stingy when it comes to music. --Steven Stolder
Live at Luther College Reviews:
Dave Mathews Band consistantly great 
2009-10-25 - I've enjoyed the band for many years. Saw them live and would happily go again.
If you like musicians that jam and jam hard...you'll be in heaven.
Good 
2009-08-26 - I recieved the product around the time it was said to be delivered and I was in good condition. I love listening to this CD, so this was not a wasted purchase at all.
Best of Dave Matthews live album
2008-09-15 - DMB is known as a jam band and too see the DMB live is to understand their mass appeal. Live at Luther College is just Dave and Tim Reynolds who is a honary member of the band. The jams are cut down and the music is stripped down to the bare essentials. This is an older cd so the songs are from what are now classic DMB songs. Recent DMB live cds focus on the newer music so this a chance to hear the classics in a way that you most likely will never see played this way again.
Very Good
2008-06-05 - Read the rest of the reviews... its all been said, this is a great cd!
